ST. PAUL, Minn. — A new survey shows many doctors in Minnesota are reluctant to accept medical marijuana as a treatment option.

The survey was released Tuesday to the state’s Task Force on Medical Cannabis Therapeutic Research. It was conducted by task force member Dr. Charles Reznikoff, an addiction specialist at Hennepin County Medical Center in Minneapolis.

Many doctors are reluctant to prescribe marijuana, citing worry over opioid abuse and a fear of being challenged by patients, as well as a lack of education.
